Overview

Product Information on Airbyte

Updated 13th October 2025

What is Airbyte?

Airbyte is an open-source data integration software designed to help organizations efficiently collect and transfer data from various sources to destinations such as data warehouses and lakes. The software provides a platform for building and orchestrating ELT (Extract, Load, Transform) pipelines, with support for a wide range of data connectors. Airbyte automates the synchronization of data by allowing users to configure source and destination connections without extensive custom code. It addresses business problems related to siloed data and time-consuming manual integration processes by enabling centralized management and scheduling of data pipelines. The software offers features like monitoring, transformation capabilities, incremental sync, and connector extensibility to support diverse integration requirements in analytics, reporting, and operational processes.

Airbyte Pricing

Airbyte software offers a pricing model that includes a free open-source version and paid cloud-hosted options. The cloud-hosted software pricing is structured based on usage, typically measured by monthly data volume and number of connector runs, with different tiers for varying levels of data movement and feature access.

We absolutely love Airbyte. It makes a process that normally has several steps (extract, move the data, format the data, ingest the data, process the data) a simple point and click process. It's multiple connectors and ease of use is unparallelled.

“The Appeal and Challenges of Adopting Airbyte for Data Transfer”

3.0
Nov 3, 2024
Airbyte is promising to be the perfect data movement tool for our data team needs. However it still lacks on few things which are vital for our business. Most importantly, the connectors that we are interested in (such as Oracle connector) are still on the Marketplace and not supported by Airbyte.

Airbyte Likes & Dislikes

Like

We like how easy it is to define a source data, and a destination and just let it go. It's fantastic for simple data loads that don't require any transformations or processing.

Like

Its ability to connect with multiple sources and destinations. Scheduler that comes with Airbyte and the integration with Airflow

Like

I liked the following features the most: 1. Good number of pre-built connectors. It already has the connectors for the sources and destinations we needed for our usecase. 2. Its cost-effective since it has self-hosted option and we were able to deploy within our k8s infrastructure. 3. Supports different sync modes like incremental, full refresh etc and easy configuration through its UI.

Dislike

It's still a bit immature product, but it's getting there. It can be clunky and a bit unresponsive at times, but it gets the job done well.

Dislike

Many connectors are not supported by Airbyte directly

Dislike

Sometimes debugging takes time.
